Waubonsee Community College
Speech 1980 — 1980
I graduated early from East Aurora High School, so that I could sneak away to the community college to take the college requirement "Speech" class. For some reason, I had always been shy in school and was petrified of speaking in front of people I knew. I didn't have as much problem with the strangers in that class, until towards the end of the class, because I had bonded with several students by that time. It made me feel VERY self-confident. The last speech was about ourselves, we had to tell about our life. My speech ended up being so dramatic and emotional that at the end, I had a lump in my throat. I was so embarrassed that I packed up my props and left the class via a theatrical "Grand Exit". I didn't mean it to work out that way, I thought I probably flunked the class because I never returned. But, I got a "B". Thank goodness! ;-)
